Excellent - Like this - more floral hopiness than I was expecting - all the same a damn fine brew. The Typical warmth from the malt, complemented withthe normal expected dry fruit.

Dec 7, 2008 Bottle, 9%. Weak dried fruit flavour. Cloudy dark orange colour. No head. The flavour is sweet and fruity, dark fruit and so on. Has a little toasted notes as well, balancing off the sweetness. The alcohol is not as distinct as could be expected.
